Last month, Justice Gladys Kamasanyu of Buganda Road Magistrate’s Court handed Brian Isiko, a student of YMCA College of Business Studies, Jinja, a two-year sentence for cyber harassment and offensive communication.

The charges were in connection with calls made and texts sent to the Kabarole Woman MP, Slyvia Rwabwogo, “confessing his love” for the legislator.

The two year jail term was highly contested by Isiko’s family members and a section of activists.

And today the love struck student has been granted bail by High Court Judge Jane Francis Abodo after appealing Justice Kamasanyu’s decision.

The judge today granted Isiko a shs500,000 cash bail while his sureties were placed on a Shs 5 million shillings non cash bond.

The suspect was also ordered not to contact the complaint (Hon Rwabwogo) either directly or indirectly.

He will have to report to the court registry every third Friday of the month until further orders by court.
